Polish international schools[edit]

Are you interested in making Template:Polish international schools? The schools listed need to be full-time day or boarding Polish schools. WhisperToMe (talk) 21:06, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Removing official language from politicians[edit]

Politicians in nations with multiple official languages should include the appropriate translations. Sepsis II (talk) 20:50, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your latest reversion has broken 1RR. Sepsis II (talk) 20:51, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
so why i've never seen that arabic script on article as Benjamin Netanyahu and Yitzhak Rabin? Gigar44 (talk) 20:54, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Racism. Why else wouldn't the name known to voters not be on a prime minister's page? Sepsis II (talk) 21:03, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nonsense, despite the arab MKs, Hebrew it's the only language they speak. Arabic has secondary status in Israel. Approximately 25% of the Israeli Citizens are arabic speakers. Gigar44 (talk) 21:21, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Do the 25% of Arabic speakers only use Hebrew names for politicians? Is there no Arabic on voting ballots? The only other nation I can think of with two official languages that have different writing systems and neither share writing systems with English is Sri Lanka, which do use all three languages for their politicians on en.wiki as seen here. Sepsis II (talk) 21:41, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There is no such rule on Wikipedia as the one claimed by Sepsis II. At the same time, it may make sense in individual cases. Debresser (talk) 04:41, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Remove nikkud[edit]

Why remove nikkud, like you did in this edit, for example? Debresser (talk) 18:44, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

how does the niqqud help to? Gigar44 (talk) 19:01, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Are you serious? Debresser (talk) 19:03, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm cynical, Why so? in other articles there's no that niqqud. It's definitely not the bible. Gigar44 (talk) 19:11, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I am also wondering if you are serious. In any case, please don't remove nikud from articles. —Ynhockey (Talk) 21:44, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the hebrew-names in the english wikipedia articles are without Niqqud. Even the Hebrew one written without Niqqud. So why should I be forbidden to undo the Niqqud? Gigar44 (talk) 22:14, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Because it is additional and useful information. Are you for real? Debresser (talk) 22:16, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It's unnecessary. Gigar44 (talk) 22:27, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So let me inform you, that it is useful, and you are not to remove it. Debresser (talk) 04:38, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

August 2016[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Wesley Mouse. Your recent edit to the page Template:Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2016 appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Wes Mouse  T@lk 16:33, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

October 2016[edit]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at David Pizanti, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. GiantSnowman 06:57, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Mahmoud Abou Rafeh. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. GiantSnowman 07:08, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Excuse me, don't you see I'm add explanation. Gigar44 (talk) 07:11, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There is no reliable source at the Mahmoud Abou Rafeh page stating he is an Israeli citizen. GiantSnowman 07:14, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The category "Israeli spy" is included by the category, Israeli people by occupation. Gigar44 (talk) 07:21, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:WIKIPEDIAISNOTARELIABLESOURCE 0 and that category clearly states "The category Israeli spy includes Israeli and non-Israeli spies for Israel. Israelis who spied for other countries are included under the nationality they served for." GiantSnowman 17:28, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please STOP[edit]

There is a long term consensus calling these places Arab ...you cannot change that without discussing it first! Seriously.... Huldra (talk) 21:22, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

why should stop edit? so where i discussing? Gigar44 (talk) 21:24, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
and why do revert everthing i did? why? Gigar44 (talk) 21:25, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Of course I am reverting you!! It can raise the discussion on, say, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Israel Palestine Collaboration, Huldra (talk) 21:30, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(Or, on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Palestine and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Israel) Huldra (talk) 21:31, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, you should always obtain consensus before changing long-standing sensitive text on many articles. Not doing so is considered highly disruptive. Zerotalk 22:04, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
